Cover crops offer enormous benefits for the home gardener, and those benefits are compounded when using a blend of multiple species. This video focuses on one of the best cool season cover crop blends, a mix which harnesses the power of legumes & cereal grain.
My favorite cool season cover crop blend contains oats, peas and vetch. I share how to plant, how to terminate and how I use this mix in my own garden, as well as the benefits offered by each of the components.
